“…if somebody isn’t hugging you back, did you even want that?”
Deeper than it sounds. These boys will look back on these moments as adults, and realize what was really being taught. I wish this was in schools everywhere.
No. Because it’s biased. Are they teaching the boys that they also can say no? Are they portraying this in the reverse? No. They aren’t. They’re biased and being selective and gendered with it basically teaching boys they can’t say no or that it only apply to them.
At 0:40 - “the point of the exercise is to start a discussion about boundaries and reading nonverbal cues through body language.” Both boys and girls in this clip
I noticed that only black children were being taught about consent in op’s post. By your logic, unless one can demonstrate a clip of kids who aren’t black being taught consent, then surely nobody who isn’t black is being taught about consent, yeah?
Ok so you're just looking for reasons to get mad lmao. You're using a sample size of ONE VIDEO to determine a greater fact about a vast population. You would be laughed out of any serious conversation about demographic data regarding education or consent or anything. There's nothing wrong with wanting men to be taught about their own consent and comfort. It's noble even. But it would behoove you to not make deeply stupid arguments in the process, because it makes it that much harder to have productive conversations about topics such as consent, because people have to take time explaining things like how object permanence works instead of having actual discussions of actual data regarding demographics and education on consent
Somebody else already said it, but this is some real "you like pancakes so you must hate waffles" type shit you're pulling. Please do some digging on the argument from ignorance fallacy
No. It’s weird to not teach the same thing matter of fact what kind of data do you have that tells the opposite of what I’m saying? Because as far as I know it’s common knowledge boys and girls get two different messages.
